It would be great to have options for the top lights on both the router and satelite Orbi's. The information about connectivity is welcome, so it would be nice to see it outside of the initial boot/sync for troubleshooting at a glance (or on demand). Providing something in the Genie app for user preferences such as:
- LED on post boot (current default)
- LED always on
- LED intermittently on (on for 10 seconds every xx minutes)
- LED on during timeframe (user selectable days & times; e.g. during the evening hours when a user is most likely home)
- LED always off

I really like this suggestion, specially the "LED always ON" option where it would automatically turn RED or blink etc if there's an issue with the either the internet connection or the connectivity between the main unit and the satellite.
Really would like this option: LED on during timeframe (user selectable days & times)
Please add this option. I prefer the light should be on to indicate the Orbi is on/functioning. User should not have to look at back of device.

Yes please. I’m tired of troubleshooting connectivity issues. 9/10itis my crappy ISP. But I would love to visually see the Orbi and satellites are not the problem
- Great suggestion. I have other network devices and appreciate being able to enable/disable/schedule when the lights/LEDs display. To be able to disable the blue light at night would be great as it is illuminates the whole room.
Yes please
I believe this has been implemented in the the Outdoor Orbi.
Please bring it to the standard model
Yes please do this
Espeacilly a colourful fade effect as demonstrated in this blog
